It’d be great if you pointed me into the direction, how to get more
details for these issues.
# posttls-finger dane.sys4.de

https://dane.sys4.de is the Web SMTP DANE validator.
Feel free to ignore distracting/irrelevant follow up comments.
The code behind https://dane.sys4.de is *a* SMTP DANE validator, but and
though still useful, is no longer necessarily deserving of being called
*the* SMTP DANE validator. It is not actively maintained, and is now a
bit dated.
I didn’t know that. Thank you for the clarification.
If you're willing to settle for data that is up to ~24 hours old, and
your domain is covered by the DANE survey at
https://stats.dnssec-tools.org/
look there first. Then if you think you've fixed the reported issues,
and want a real-time sanity check (don't want to wait for the next run),
look at dane.sys4.de. Presently survey runs start shortly after 16:00
UTC and complete shortly after 20:00 UTC (each survey run performs ~100
million DNS queries, and makes around 20k SMTP connections.
That looks very useful. I am going to use that first from now on.
Kind regards,
Paul
